Yeah. Such a thing as adding to the overload.

Once entered a home where everyone was dropping the F bomb...from grandpa to great grand son.

He is using his private space, speaking his mind and exercising free speech. So unless Texas has laws against profanity in public places, I consider him a brave person and to be commended like the lady cyclist. Extra credit since it is in Texas.

Not that I would ever display a bumper sticker that is profane, but that is my choice. But I do if motivated flip my finger at drivers camping out on the left lane doing 55.

If you give the finger to another driver, they probably won't pick up a gun and start shooting at you. But you never know....

I was exaggerating but there are times I do and times wish I can do. I am always running late (DNA), heavy traffic and wonder why pickups and Prius drivers insist on camping out in the left lane at 55 mph. If I do flip the bird, it's only after a good look and careful consideration of the Prius drivers only. These Prius drivers have HOV stickers and truly believe that the left lane belongs to them.
Pickups, I simply ignore them, they could be dangerous. I simply get around them.
Appreciate the warning though.

And now the sheriff of this town wants to bring Disorderly Charges against the driver. The sheriff is also contemplating a run for congress. What a party pooper. As usual, stuff like this only happens in Texas or Florida.

Yes.

I will run into the Great Pumpkin before Trump does anything for the "regular people" who voted for him.

And I will take that as a well deserved complement.
